The duchess and the dragon
Carie, Jamie2008
Large Print
Drake Weston, Duke of Northumberland, is accustomed to a life of luxury until a tragic mistake followed by a murderous rage results in his flight from England. With a hoard of money on which to survive, Drake hops a ship of indentured servants to America, but he's robbed, and later taken ill, by the merciless sea voyage. In Pennsylvania, Serena Winter is a humble, devoted Quaker tending the sick aboard a ship that has just arrived from England. Intrigued by Drake's air of dark mystery after he begins to serve as an apprentice to her silversmith father, Serena falls in love with him, and is excommunicated from her church when she accepts the proposal a non-Quaker. With no knowledge of his past, Serena is shocked to discover her status as a duchess. What follows are hard truths and softening hearts, romance triangles, webs of deceit, and ultimately, the power of grace, love, and passion.
